Elena Rigano (XXI) - Fumo e rossetto

Hand-signed by contemporary artist Elena Rigano and bearing the Gallery’s stamp. Title: Smoke and Lipstick Size: 70x55 cm Year: 2024 Elena Rigano is a contemporary artist whose painting practice focuses on depicting suspended moments in everyday life. Through careful and measured figuration, she investigates the intimate dimension of existence, transforming ordinary gestures into images charged with emotional tension and silence. Her research unfolds from a dialogue between tradition and contemporaneity: on one side the influence of the great masters of painting, in the construction of light and composition; on the other a visually cinematic sensibility, capable of evoking suspended atmospheres and implicit narratives. Her figures, often depicted from behind or absorbed in their own thoughts, inhabit essential spaces where time seems to slow down, allowing subtle and universal interior states to emerge. Rigano’s work is distinguished by a calibrated use of light, which becomes a central narrative element, and by an intense yet controlled color palette, where contrasts help define the visual rhythm of the piece. Each painting takes the form of an autonomous scene, yet at the same time part of a broader inquiry into the themes of waiting, distance, and the perception of time. In recent years, her work has attracted the attention of private collectors and exhibition venues interested in new figurative contemporary art, consolidating a recognizable and coherent poetics.
